In this paper, we consider a cooperative multi-hop secured transmission protocol to underlay cognitive radio networks. In the proposed protocol, a secondary source attempts to transmit its data to a secondary destination with the assistance of multiple secondary relays. In addition, there exists a secondary eavesdropper who tries to overhear the source data. Under a maximum interference level required by a primary user, the secondary source and relay nodes must adjust their transmit power. We first formulate effective signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) as well as secrecy capacity under the constraints of the maximum transmit power, the interference threshold and the hardware impairment level. Furthermore, when the hardware impairment level is relaxed, we derive exact and asymptotic expressions of end-to-end secrecy outage probability over Rayleigh fading channels by using the recursive method. The derived expressions were verified by simulations, in which the proposed scheme outperformed the conventional multi-hop direct transmission protocol.

Article Synopsis
- - The study examines a child with global developmental delay and autism, focusing on their clinical features and genetic background.
- - Clinical signs included cognitive, language, and motor delays, along with autism and epilepsy, and genetic testing revealed a specific variant in the TBR1 gene linked to these conditions.
- - After treatment, the child showed significant improvement in motor skills and had no seizures for five months, suggesting that the identified genetic variant may be a key factor in the child's developmental issues.
Spatial correspondence among regional gene expressions and gray matter volume loss in multiple sclerosis.

Article Synopsis
- A study on multiple sclerosis (MS) patients found significant gray matter (GM) volume loss compared to healthy controls, and this loss may relate to regional gene expression differences.
- Researchers analyzed brain MRIs and genetic data from 286 MS patients and 172 healthy individuals, identifying specific genes associated with the observed GM changes.
- Key findings indicate that altered expressions of genes linked to GABA neurotransmission and mitochondrial functions in brain cells could contribute to the disease's impact on GM volume, particularly in more disabled and cognitively impaired patients.

Joint Power Control and Resource Allocation with Rate Fairness Consideration for SWIPT-Based Cognitive Two-Way Relay Networks.

This paper investigates the power control and resource allocation problem in a simultaneously wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT)-based cognitive two-way relay network, in which two secondary users exchange information through a power splitting (PS) energy harvesting (EH) cognitive relay node underlay in a primary network. To enhance the secondary networks's transmission ability without detriment to the primary network, we formulate an optimization to maximize the minimum transmission rates of the cognitive users by jointly optimizing power allocation at the sources, the time allocation of transmission frames and power splitting at the relay, under the constraint that the transmission power of the cognitive network is set not to exceed the primary user interference threshold to ensure primary work performance. To efficiently solve this problem, a sub-optimal algorithm named the joint power control and resource allocation (JPCRA) scheme is proposed, in which we decouple the non-convex problem into convex problems and use alternative steps in the optimization algorithm to get final solutions.
